In terms of the timeline, this takes place at the beginning of the second part, during the time when the protagonist is on Demon Island. During the previous stampede, at the first of the four lines of defense set up in the northern part of Ishka, Suzume was fighting. “―― Pierce, Senka!” With a sharp…
Emperor Amadeus II of the Adoastera Empire was alone, seated on the throne in the unattended audience room. There wasn’t any scheduled audience forthcoming.
